Matt Hooker


Even after he was diagnosed with cancer, Matt Hooker lived life to the fullest.

He welcomed a newborn son, enjoyed the outdoors, cherished time with family and friends, and he helped others going through the same medical battle.

A 1997 Mt. Carmel High School graduate, the Morgan Park resident was known as a "Carmel man" through and through, and he returned to his alma mater as an assistant wrestling coach for many years.
